Trivia / Heavy Metal L-Gaim

• Acting for Two:
  • Maria Kawamura's voices both Lilith and Leccee. They even talk to one another in episode 18.
  • Shunsuke Takamiya voices two different members of Posaydal's Elite 13, Baan-Gania and Hans.
• Follow the Leader: L-Gaim was produced as part of the post Mobile Suit Gundam Real Robot boom. It also takes a lot of cues from Star Wars, specifically the kooky pulp adventure setting and having an emperor as the Big Bad. The original trilogy movies are a personal favorite of Mamoru Nagano (who, contrary to the popular opinion, was the actual mastermind behind L-Gaim - Yoshiyuki Tomino only directed the series and had no involvement with the plot) .
• The Other Darrin:
  • Amandara original voice actor was replaced by Ryuichi Horibe late into series.
  • In the OVA, Baan-Gania is voiced by Unshō Ishizuka instead of Shunsuke Takamiya.
